yesmynameisking Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) I've been cleaning up a pair of Klipsch Quartet's that I'll be powering with my Amps & Sound Classic Wonder single ended 6B4G triode tube amp. The squawkers and tweeters both run too high in comparison to the woofers, and I'd like to reduce them by about 5dB. Currently I have a pair of Heresy II's that I'm using $89 ALK Engineering transformer tweeter attenuators (set a -5db). What value of resisters can I use to accomplish the exact same thing without spending $89 a set? Thanks, Mike Edited July 6, 2015 by yesmynameisking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesmynameisking Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 (edited) wdecho, Do I just enter 8 ohms? Or do the K-616K's and K-76-K's have different values? And if I do L-Pads, if 15 watt okay, or should I spend extra for 50 watt or 100 watt? Edited July 6, 2015 by yesmynameisking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minermark Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Or you could simply shoot Bob an email or give him a call, i like using experts as long as they are living. Explain to Bob what you wish to do, NO charge for great advice. http://www.critesspeakers.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djk Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Buy a 16Ω L-pad for the mid, and an 8Ω for the tweet. Adjust until it works right, measure and replace with fixed value parts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
